Jodhpurs: Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em

You are likely aware of the extent to which we loved the Fall 07 Balenciaga collection. Deconstructed preppy is theme we extracted from the offerings but since neither of our names are Ghesquiere, we wouldn't dream of taking a runway look and translating it into any literal way into our realities. To make a long story short, we're not wearing Jodhpurs this season or, possibly, ever. In fact, we are a bit bothered by the recent attention this trend has received.


Welcome back to the world of unflattering pants. If fashion editors have any say in the matter, this might happen faster than one can say Z Cavaricci. When is the bad fashion of our childhood going to go away? This is a code red situation, these pants are already on the market at GAP Europe. Is there any chance they might just skip the US Market entirely? We fear not. We fear it will be up to the masses to "just say no." (And I think we all know how well that works).

I think you know where we stand. Lest your express purpose in life is to channel this guy:


Can't touch this.
